Abstract
Rabi oscillations of a two-level atomic system with damping effects are described by the use of a pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonian. The Rabi frequency and the amplitudes for being in the upper and lower level depend in the present system on both the Hermitian resonant interaction between the em field and the atomic dipole and on damping effects. The time development of the two-level system is studied by using the metric of the pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonian and its bi-orthonormal basis of states. The special characteristics of the present system are related to PT (parity-time reversal) and C (generalized conjugation operator) invariant properties of the pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonian.
